<P>Hey&nbsp;<LI-USER uid="52294">﻿</LI-USER>,</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>First let me say welcome to the community!&nbsp;<img id="smileyhappy" class="emoticon emoticon-smileyhappy" src="https://uniib84584.i.lithium.com/community/s/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.png" alt="Smiley Happy" title="Smiley Happy" /></P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>As long as both servers are registered as valid hosts, you should be able to add them as custom nameservers. You might try checking to be sure you didn't include any extra characters such as a 'space' before or after the nameserver as this might be what's causing the alert.&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>Another item to be aware of is if you're applying this to a&nbsp;unique domain such as some ccTLD's that may require you to also specify the IP address for each server. If that doesn't work, let us know what type of domain you're trying to make this update for? Possible there's a registry requirement for the domain we might be overlooking.&nbsp;</P>

<P>Hi CG, Thanks a lot for your reply.</P><P>The domain is a studioarbol.nl, I have checked and typed few times the nameservers but alas for vein.</P><P>Is the IP address is the same as the ftp of my host? Where should the I.P address be written, in the "add IP address" near the nameserver?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Kind regards and thanks for the help,</P><P>Gilad</P><P>&nbsp;</P>Mon, 26 Sep 2016 18:31:25 GMThttps://www.godaddy.com/community/Managing-Domains/getting-error-atfer-trying-to-change-custom-DNS/m-p/10234#M1599gilad2016-09-26T18:31:25ZRe: getting error atfer trying to change custom DNShttps://www.godaddy.com/community/Managing-Domains/getting-error-atfer-trying-to-change-custom-DNS/m-p/10251#M1601
<P>Hi&nbsp;<LI-USER uid="52294">﻿</LI-USER>,</P>
<P>You will need to make sure that the host names have been <A href="https://www.godaddy.com/help/add-my-own-host-names-as-nameservers-12320" target="_self">registered</A>. Also, adding the IP address is not necessary. If you continue to have issues please reach out to our support team.&nbsp;</P>Mon, 26 Sep 2016 20:55:50 GMThttps://www.godaddy.com/community/Managing-Domains/getting-error-atfer-trying-to-change-custom-DNS/m-p/10251#M1601charminglygeeky2016-09-26T20:55:50ZRe: getting error atfer trying to change custom DNShttps://www.godaddy.com/community/Managing-Domains/getting-error-atfer-trying-to-change-custom-DNS/m-p/10287#M1607
